Our family stayed last year and had a fantastic time at this hotel. Ernie, who is a porter at the hotel provided us with a fabulous greeting. ( he really is worth more money - as my kids have told their friends to go there to meet the cool guy). Each time we left the hotel he would give us a friendly reception. Breakfast is great value and it is short walk to downtown Disney. The buses ran regularly for drop off to the parks each morning and it was easy to find them at night . It was lovely after a busy day at the parks to sit by the pool with a drink and relax. In fact , we would love to be back there right now.

I am pleased to know that your stay with us was enjoyable and that Ernie provided you with a fabulous greeting at check in. We will make sure that Ernie is recognized in some special way due to your kind comments.

Our rooms were clean and very well appointed with the necessary items for our 2 day stay. The staff was very responsive to out needs and helpful. Our housekeeper was "a keeper" for sure! She made sure that when we returned from a long hot day at the park, everything we needed was ready and even took care of getting a small leaky water pipe under the sink fixed while we were out having fun. The refrigerator and microwave in the room were a bonus since we traveled with children and needed to store and heat snacks.

Room Tip: Ask for a room that faces the parks so you can watch the fireworks from you balcony.

We chose the Holiday Inn because of its value and proximity to Disney. A welcome bonus was the courteous and friendly staff. The staff at the Holiday Inn is by far its greatest asset! Every employee we came in contact with was extremely friendly and helpful including the front desk, the valet attendants, housekeeping, maintenance, and the restaurant staff. The common areas of the hotel as well as the rooms are well maintained and always clean. The location is within walking distance to Disney Village and shuttles are available every 1/2 hour to all the Disney parks. There are many properties to choose from while staying in the Disney area, and we have visited many of them, but the Holiday Inn was a great value and choice for us..

Room Tip: A room overlooking the pool. I would request a room with a balcony with a black rail rather than a...

This place was lovely, and a great get away for my husband and I. Normally we bring the kids down on vacation, but this visit it was just the two of us. As soon as we came in Friday evening, we decided to have dinner at the hotel restaurant, which was quite busy. Mikey greeted us with a huge smile, & served us our dinner as the other waiters were unable to get to us. Friendliest service I'd received in years. The food was delicious, and the wait was fair given the amount of people inside. My bed was very comfortable, I was able to enjoy a good night's sleep. The hotel has gave us an excellent view of the downtown Disney area. No complaints at this hotel, look forward to bringing the kids here for the holidays.

Room Tip: Book your room well in advance & request a room in the tower building, it's very quiet!

Green Features: I would have liked to see more recycling bins. We are very eco-friendly in South Dakota and I would expect such a large resort area to take a larger part.

We stayed for a total of 13 days and nights. I made a special request online to check in early at 2 pm with Kelly Bonfati, and they we're able to accommodate our request. As soon as we arrived at the front desk, Danny welcomed us and notified us that our room was ready. Danny provided brochures, maps, and directions around our area. He was very helpful.

Their Breakfast Buffet was outstanding. The area is very clean and organized. Hostess, Waiters, and Waitresses we're always smiling and constantly checking up on us to make sure we had a good Breakfast. Omelet Station, fruits, bacon, sausage links, pancakes; you name it, they have it. I forgot to mention their MICKEY WAFFLES!!! It is a waffle station that you make your own. TIP: We recommend that you go early to avoid a crowd and to get an early start to your day.

If you are coming here for the theme parks (Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Epcot) at Disney World, the hotel offers shuttle service that runs every 30 minutes. There are shuttles that also travel to Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach, but you must transfer buses from any of the parks or just ask a cast member for assistance. This proved beneficial for us because we would get tired throughout the day, catch the shuttle back to the hotel, and return back to the park later in the evening. Downtown Disney is about a 10-15 minute walk, but beginning at 6 pm, there is shuttle service to Downtown Disney. For the most part the shuttles are on time depending on traffic.

Overall, a great place to stay for everyone. Will most definitely be returning back next year!

This was one of several hotels at Downtown Disney. We choose it because it was actually inside the WDW Resort area and because we got a really good deal without the Resort Fees. The area itself is very nice and the hotel is in walking distance to Downtown Disney and offered shuttle service to all Disney parks. The staff was friendly and very helpful with almost anything you asked them. I loved the pool because one side was 0 entry for smaller children. The hotel itself was nothing spectacular. The entire interior was this "institutional" yellow color. The elevator and the area surrounding it had an old musty smell to it. We had adjoining rooms with balconies. One room had a nice view of the pool and the other had a concrete wall to look at. The only real complaint is that I kept finding random hair but I didn't make a big deal about it.

Room Tip: If you actually want a pool view be sure to ask for a room with the wrought iron banister versus the...

I choose this hotel thanks to the reviews that it got on Trip Advisor. I am a person who lives with 0.C.D. and I have a phobia of hotel rooms.. After much consideration I choose Holiday Inn Lake Buena Vista. This hotel was absolutely wonderful . From the moment we drove up and were greeted by the parking guys to the moment we checked out our trip was flawless. The room was spotless , the staff were very nice and helpful and the location to all the parks was great. I would def recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a good , clean, friendly place to stay!!
